I'm thinking about installing the 2" Eco-Hitch on our 2012 Impreza. Does anyone out here use the Eco-Hitch with a 1Up bike rack? Do they work together? Does the hitch insert go in far enough? Is there sufficient clearance to be able to put the rack in the upright position?

If you don't have the 1Up rack, how recessed is the front face of the hitch receiver from the surface of the bumper cover? How deep is the hitch receiver? Thanks!

Send me some measurements from the stinger of the rack and I can check to see if it'd work.

General Rule of thumb for the stinger: All ballmounts/bike rack stingers cannot exceed more than 2-3/8” of an inch from the center of the pinhole to the end of the stinger.

Right on dude! Yea I live in W. Sac. The Oregon O gives me away eh? haha

What's biting in the port right now? Seen any lost salmon pulled outa there?

stripers are starting to come up. some guys on the kayak forum caught some stray salmon. I caught one there last year while i was trolling a white crank bait. it was around 20-25lb and took me 30-45 minutes to bring it in with a 8lb test trout rod

Dude...thats awesome! Might have to try my hand out there on my yak...

Thanks for the reply. I thought the cars were the same too, but no one shows a hitch for a 2014 Impreza. They show 2014 Outback, Crosstek, Forester, Tribeca and Legacy...but not Impreza. It made me think that perhaps something changed. I ordered one for a 2013, I will find out soon enough.

Did you contact Torklift? I don't see why it'd be any different unless they changed the frame, and I doubt they did.
